It is 100+ here where I live and love every second of it! I am definitely a warm weather girl! Today I worked a half day and I will be off until Monday and I plan on enjoying every second.
Body- Today I took it a little easy because my hamstring feels a little tweaked but this is what I did.
I do a circuit like training indoors when it's this hot.
5 min on elliptical on level 2.
25 straight sit ups.
25 front lunges.
25 bicep curls.
5 min on elliptical on level 3.
25 side sit ups
25 squats.
25 straight presses (with 5 pound weights).
5 min on elliptical on level 3.
25 crunches.
25 plies (like ballerinas perform)
25 front arm presses (the kind they do when saying "We must increase our bust!")
5 min on elliptical on level 5
25 lower abdominal crunches
25 side lunges
25 fly presses.
Food- I was kind of bad today but I had intense cravings and with the sense of being on vacation I splurged a little. But that is perfectly fine. Also since I'm allergic to dairy splurging for me is healthy for most people. : )
9:00 - Banana
11:00- Grapes and two slices of honeydew melon
12:00- Apple (If you are trying to stay trim only eat fruit before noon)
1:30 - Leftover whole wheat spaghetti with organic sauce and sauteed mushrooms. I also use ground turkey for meat instead of ground beef.
2:00 - Here's where the cravings start. I really wanted Kettle Corn popcorn so I popped some and ate the whole bag!!! My husband had some last night when we watched a movie and I passed because it was 9:00 at night. I really wanted some and just had to give in to my craving.
6:30 We will be going to dinner to celebrate my mini vacay so we are going to eat Mexican food. I will probably order spanish rice and refried beans. I will also eat chips, salsa, and guacamole. Oh and I'm sure I'll have a frozen margarita or two!!!
Here is a picture of the beach in Jamaica. I wish I was there today! I hope everyone is having a great middle of the week! I will post again tomorrow as I'm holding myself accountable for my fitness routine. It's harder to work out when your clothes fit! No motivation.
